bullets at a velocity of 379 m/s ±9.1 m/s (1245 ft/s ± 30 ft/s) and 10.2 g (158
gr) .357 Magnum Jacketed Soft Point bullets at a velocity of 408 m/s ±9.1
m/s (1340 ft/s ± 30 ft/s). It also provides protection against the threats
mentioned in [Types I and IIA].
Classification Contin.
Type IIIA

(240 gr) .44 Magnum Semi Jacketed Hollow Point (SJHP) bullets at a
velocity of 436 m/s (1430 ft/s ± 30 ft/s). Conditioned armor protects
against 8.1 g (125 gr) .357 SIG FMJ Flat Nose (FN) bullets at a velocity
of 430 m/s ± 9.1 m/s (1410 ft/s ± 30 ft/s) and 15.6 g (240 gr) .44 Magnum
Semi Jacketed Hollow Point (SJHP) bullets at a velocity of 408 m/s ± 9.1

30 ft/s). It also provides at least single hit protection against the threats
mentioned in [Types I, IIA, II, IIIA, and III].
Shear-thickening Fluid
Colloid that forms hydroclusters Made of Silica (sand and quartz) and
polyethylene glycol 2 or 3 milliseconds upon impact
Increase density by 20% 3.5 times stronger than Kevlar
Magnetorheological Fluid/ MR
Also in dampen impact of car shock absorbers, bridges and prosthetic limbs Redistributes Iron molecules to magnetic
interference Stab Resistant Will need electricity to activate
